From One State To Another

Good evening sisters!

We are thanking the Lord for allowing us to make it to our destination but before we left I took you on a little walk.

We started our drive toward a tourist place on the other side of the mountains which means we were going to leave Wyoming, go through part of Montana and then back into Wyoming on the other side of the mountains.  Our plan was to stop in Montana for the night and finish tomorrow but brother Jim asked how far to a favorite spot we like to go and after looking it up, we decided to go there.  Which is where we are now, in Wyoming about an hour away from the tourist town that we plan to witness.

Thank you sister for the scripture on my picture and the other ones you shared here:-) Instead of sitting in a parking lot in the heat, we are now in a city park (free for travelers), very thankful for the trees to shade us from the sun.  Praise God:-)  So we went from one state to another today and it made me think of the day I heard the gospel.  I was in a state of sin one minute and after hearing the gospel, I was heading into another state of repentance and being born again, coming out the other side as a new creation!

For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. Luke 15:24 

Amen, praise God!!!

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 

And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 

 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. 

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.  

2 Corinthians 5:17-21 

The GOSPEL is what changes lives from a state of sin to a state of a saint, striving after holiness and obedience.  Test yourself to see that you truly are in the faith and not deceived by a false gospel. 

We took you along on our travels today across God's enormous earth that we can only see bits and pieces of.

Along the way we stopped at a produce stand, I think brother Jim has a note about that on his post HERE along with other updates:-)

Another of God's amazing creations!  They are all over!

And we saw this last night but I'm sure where we are tonight there will be no interruptions like this...

But it's all good, we're use to it on the road but to have a quiet park to stop in, what a treat!  

Some Titus 2 going on here, I paid $1.76 for this pile of groceries from coupons and credits from a survey.

Pistachios for $1...

And I share a dinner I made the other day, egg and turkey bacon sandwich. 

Speaking of dinner, I have to get going and make sure I take care of my Titus 2 duties tonight, I think it'll be veggie stir fry cuz I bought some zucchini and carrots from the produce stand to put with the veggies I got the other day.  Praise God for the blessing of healthy foods!

Stand strong sisters, like that sunflower in the video I shared with you.  Our Savior has finished His mighty work and now it's our turn to do good works for Him, bringing Him glory and maturing us along the way.  

Hold fast sisters and I'm here to encourage you on!

In godly love to all my faithful, obedient sisters in Christ,

Sister Deb

This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: 

 Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. 

But ye have not so learned Christ; 

 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: 

That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 

And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 

And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.  

Ephesians 4:17-24
